Bulletin 004 · Year 903 of the Dominion
Long Watch Clock Stops for One Minute
Between the stars, the Visitants are moving. We know where. Now, so do you.
The Order of the Long Watch reports that its clock stopped yesterday for one minute, then started again. The Order’s monks have kept that single clock running since the founding of the Dominion. It has never stopped before.
The Order has written to the Trajectory Office asking for the correct time. The Office has not yet replied.
On the Whitepath, the Brasswright League reports that the crossing now takes five days. Its pilots have changed nothing.
On Havenmere, half the population has now left. Wardens report that clocks there are running slow, by a few minutes a day. The Office has asked residents to keep their departure times by the clocks aboard the evacuation ships.
Havenmere has twelve days.
The course is charted. Mind the dark between.
